Here's how you calculate a ratio

(amount of X) / (amount of X + amount of Y)
Take a look at the below link. The dilution rate is 1:10 but it does in fact say it will make 11 gallons. So this then means it is 1 part "x" to 10 parts "y". Had it been 1 part "x' and 9 parts "y" you'd only get 10 gallons.

I'm glad I'm confused for a reason
